    Reloading vs Factory Price Comparison: 6.5 PRC Berger 156gr

    If you only shoot 40 rounds a year, buy factory and don't look back. If you shoot on a regular basis, the cost benefit starts to tip in your favor around 7-8 boxes of ammo, especially at that price. As far as shooting match bullets for hunting, there's an incredible amount of information on...

    What did you take to Africa?

    Sounds like a good trip, you guys are going to have a blast. PH will likely have the big gun(s) in the inventory to cover anything if/when it gets thick or close up. Take what you enjoy shooting and it’ll work itself out. There’s nothing on that list that a 6mm-.30 cal can’t handle 👍

    The Experience Project Podcast: Thrive On Difficult Hunts

    Cool episode, good perspective on the holistic look at “success” when it comes to hunting. Thinking about the way we think is an undervalued practice for most, great philosophical dialogue in there 👍

    Middle aged guy struggling to drop a few lbs in the belly area

    1. Cut the creatine. Yes it helps with strength training, yes it’s good for brain function. Yes you are probably holding 4-6 pounds of additional subcutaneous fluid while on it. 2. Add an additional weekly extended mobility workout, ie 60 minute jog, 90 minute ruck, 90 minute bike 3. Swap 2 of...

    How to determine best shoes for running

    To add some context for multiple shoes in rotation: 1. Make sure all shoes have the same drop measurement. Your stride and natural run mechanics will feel weird if they are different. 2. Use cushioned shoes for longer runs. 3. Use lighter shoes for speed, pace, and interval runs.

    Attempted Assasination

    You don’t need a badge or uniform to have common sense. Unbelievable that an elevated position was not under considerable scrutiny.

    Attempted Assasination

    Terrible thing to happen, regardless of party alignment. BBC and Sky News immediately went to anti-gun dialogue. Ballpark is 400’ shot, hard angle to the stage

    What did you do in the reloading room today?

    Hot off the press this morning and was able to get some shooting in before the thunder and ensuing monsoon hit.

    Anybody carry a fixed blade knife on their belt while hunting?

    Yep. Had a buddy make a sheath with an extra 2” below the belt loop, keeps the pommel below my pack belt so I can still get to it without undoing my belt. I use mine for more than animals though.

    Craziest mountain flying video you’ll ever see!

    Any drone/RPA operators on here?
